Would you really need the windage adjustment? I would think you could use the scope for that.

You will typically use the elevation turret to sight in on the known distances on the F class range. This is just ballistics and is easily calculable. If there is a tailwind or headwind, it doesn't affect the flight path much (think about it, 10mph is 15 fps, which is around the error of your match load for say a 2700 fps 6.5 CM at the muzzle). However, a 10 mph side wind can throw your round off by 2 feet at 600 yds (or 5 feet at a 1000 yds).

But the wind is rarely constant, so judging the wind is the real art to long range shooting. Typically, F class shooters don't touch the windage turret, but use the rest adjustment (or just hold left or right if using a bipod if shooting F T/R) and the stadia lines to hold off for the wind. Since your offhand is free, it is much easier and causes less movement to reach out and adjust the rest vs reaching back and adjusting the windage turret. Also, you don't have to keep track of how many clicks back and forth that you moved the turret in a changing wind.

For iron peep sights, this isn't possible (or nearly as accurate), so they tend to set their windage adjustment instead of holding left or right.

There are different styles of shooting, Tubbs prefers to get on the center and then shoot as rapidly as accurately possible without changing anything hoping to get his shots in before the wind changes. The downside is that the hotter barrel causes more mirage. Others prefer to read the wind and adjust on each shot and use the entire 20 minutes for their 20 shots.

Assuming that you are still shooting left shouldered with your RH action, the LH rest might be very helpful.

Warne just released a new mount specific to the Bergara Premier line, picatinney style. They offer short or long action and either 0 moa or 20 moa styles. I canceled the backordered two piece mounts, new mount ships today. I went with 0 moa style.

The Aadmount scope caps are also shipped and I ordered 100 rounds of Hornady Match ELD 140 Grain Brass 6.5 Creedmoor. Only things left for down the road is a Sinclair shooting rest and some shooting bags. Need to sell a few more things first.

The Tango4 has 16 MIL's of total elevation, which with a 0MOA mount means that you have 8MIL adjustment to work with. With the 6.5 CM, that might limit you to just under 1,000 yds with a 200yd zero (assuming no holdover). If you go with the 20MOA (5.5MIL) mount, that would add up to 13.5MIL and get you out to about 1,300yds.

But getting proficient at long range takes time, and it is a reasonably inexpensive upgrade to switch to the 20MOA mount later.

I thought it had more than that on the model I bought. I’m waiting on another credit and will order the 20 moa for in the future. You are correct, it will take some time as I’m going to use the 308 this year.

I don't see a downside to a 20MOA mount. I have one on my Rem700 PSS and have only ever shot 600 yds max and my 20x scope has 36 MIL's of elevation, so I shouldn't need it, but in the future, who knows?

As above, they aren't the most expensive upgrade and if not shooting past 600 yds for a while (which is challenging enough), you can always upgrade later.

Any information on a custom case or at least a hard case for this rifle? I did a little searching but couldn’t find one that’s “just right” for this rifle. Did find a Patriot case for the Ruger Persion 6.5 but meh...might not be right.
